Harding, more than any other add ministration official, is responsibie for the action taken today. It} was taken on his decision, after its advisability had. been seriously questioned by other officials, He replied to all objections raised that the government could not sit by and let the public be levied on without at least trying to do some: thing. Ho directed that if there was any possible way to apply the conspiracy law, the anti-trust act, or any other statute that it be tried, even if the chances of stc- cess were slim tately. ‘The sald, to heavy in by the announcement suit had been filed, Spot sugwr, however, found no easter level.
